I have been a  Chiropractor in Denver, Colorado since 2004 and have seen thousands of cases of low back pain. These cases range from simple localized low back pain to severe radiating low back pain.

“¢ If there is any  pain radiation into the buttocks, hips, leg or feet.

“¢ If it lasts more than a couple of days or gets progressively worse.
